Ok, so I give it a whirl, I'm totally burned out on CW shows but I have to check out the pilot to a new CW show.
It's pretty atypical of the other shows, a bit over the top, plenty of additional characters to slow the action down but my main issue with it personally? The lead.
I admit I've never been a big fan of Rose, didn't like her on "Orange" or John Wick, I find her somewhat wooden. I didn't mind her Batwoman on the crossover though.
The other issue I have is her as an action star, she's kind of a twig and while the Batsuit improves that matter, I found myself kind of not buying her fight scenes. I've never felt that way about Sara Lance (easily my favourite CW character) because she seems to own the action scenes.
I have no idea if the show is accurate to the comic but if they add the "Question" I'd likely check that out.
Anyway, it's probably not going to get me back to the CW anytime soon, although that was a really impossible task to begin with, I never really read this character and i'm way too spoiled by "Doom Patrol".
